"However, he has been known to play out wide on either flank when the occasion demands it. * A handful of positions Charles De Ketelaere has played in (Transfermarkt) But there is not enough in the way of indication that the 25-year-old would satisfy the current squad demands as smoothly as the options on Bayern's offensive shortlist."
"Bayern Munich are still firmly concentrating on making a deal happen for Anthony Gordon. Vincent Kompany's side believes the England international would be the best fit for the club at this point. For starters, he's a more natural option to compete on the left wing with Luis Diaz, and he can play comfortably across the entire forward line."
"It's worth emphasising that Bayern's recent policy of maximising assets brought in from the Premier League has largely (barring Nicolas Jackson) paid dividends for on-pitch success. The potential stumbling block remains Newcastle's potentially lofty fee for Gordon (in the region of £80m). De Ketelaere may very well be cheaper, but his Premier League counterpart is likelier to hit the ground running in the Bundesliga."
A claim that Bayern Munich and Atalanta have scheduled talks for Charles De Ketelaere is denied. Bayern is not concrete on De Ketelaere as a target. De Ketelaere is described as a versatile attacker who has played as an attacking midfielder, centre-forward, and occasionally on either flank. The article states there is insufficient indication that he would meet current squad demands as smoothly as other options on Bayern’s offensive shortlist. Bayern’s priority remains a deal for Anthony Gordon. The club believes Gordon fits best, including competing on the left wing with Luis Diaz and playing across the forward line. The main obstacle is Newcastle’s potentially high fee around £80m, while De Ketelaere could be cheaper but Gordon is expected to adapt faster to the Bundesliga.
